Agreed....60 cycle machines don't do well running on 50 cycle, unless they are rated as 50/60 cycle. The induction motors will run a bit slower on 50 cycle, but you also need to check the control circuits to see if transformers, etc. are also rated 50/60 cycle. It's much easier and safer running 50 cycle European machinery on 60 cycle than it is going the other way. For voltage incompatibility, transformers can be used. Frequency conversion isn't near as easy.
